gi stasis

Maple's suffering from gut stasis at the moment - it came on in less than 24hrs and she's extremely bloated. She's at the vets as an inpatient and on fluids as well as being given critical care. They've taken an x-ray of her sitting in a normal position (no anaesthetic needed for that) and can't...

Hi all, I'm new here and I'm concerned about my rabbit's health. Honey is a 1 year old holland lop. Last week I noticed a big change in her appetite and took her to the vet - they diagnosed her with GI stasis and kept her for 4 days. They gave her lots of liquids, pain medicine, antibiotics...

Hello everyone! Recently I brought my ten year old bunny to the vet to be treated for a mild but persistent cough. I had some blood work get done on him before putting him on any meds as his stomach is extremely fragile and I don’t want to give him anything unnecessary. He showed slightly high...

Hello everyone. I adopted my neutered one year old bunny willy about a month ago. Since yesterday, he has had little interest in his pellets. He is still munching on hay but not as much as normal. He is still eating veggies too. Not drinking as much water, but I’ve been sprinkling more on his...

My baby bun, Peaches, passed away this morning on the way to the emergency vet clinic. It looked like she either had a stroke or seized. Last night when I went to check on her before bed, her hay bin was still full from that morning which is when I knew something was wrong because I have to fill...

It seems I have a very gas prone bunny he had an episode on Sunday and then another one last night which resulted in a vet trip this morning after he went 12 hours not wanting to eat. Since going to the vet he is eating again but I have no idea what’s causing it. So my question is if anyone else...

My approx. 6-year-old velveteen/dwarf hotot/who-knows-what-else rescued bun, Toby, has been getting GI stasis regularly for almost 2 years now. He gets fed a great diet of a wide range of greens, fruit treats, Small Pet Select pellets (great quality), Oxbow orchard grass hay, and even a daily...

Bouquet (one of my rabbits) is sitting pretty hunched up and doesn't seem to budge much. I think she's pooping, eating, etc. - but it's kinda hard to be certain as there's three of them. She did accept some of her favourite treat about an hour ago and this morning she raced to the food bowl to...

Hello everyone. I posted a thread yesterday asking about which digestive supplements might help my bunnies but got no answers. Today has been about the same as yesterday, with my buns both eating hay and greens. They will eat compressed hay bales, oxbow digestive health supplement, and greens...

Hi everyone! For the past few days my buns have both randomly had very small droppings and don’t want to eat much early in the mornings. They eat hay and fresh veggies in the afternoon and evening perfectly fine, and are drinking water. They also act very normal and have been more active...

Hi everyone, My pet bunny, Onigiri, is a lionhead mix, 11 months old and is neutered. Last night he ate his dinner and everything was normal. This morning he had zero interest in his food and did not want his preferred treats, any fruits, veggies, or water. His activity level was about 90%...

Ok, I'm stumped. My rabbit was ill nearly two weeks ago. He ate a bunch of graham crackers that he shouldn't have and they upset his stomach. We took him to the vet and he was x-rayed, examined and prescribed pain killers. Now he seems almost totally normal except he will not eat his pellets or...

Hello everyone, This is my first post and the reason I've registered here is to write this post, because I want to know other people's opinion from different countries. I'm a bit lost here, don't know what to do: I have two sterilized bunnies (a female and a male both of them are around 3-4...

I made a big mistake when I bought her, I never fed her hay. I bought her when she was a baby from a flea market and the breeder never said anything about hay, I also didn't do much research at the time. Trust me, I know now. She is 5 years old and honestly I have no clue how she's survived this...

So I thought I'd share my Great Big Terrifying Ordeal that I had with my bunny earlier, in the hopes that if someone is going through the same thing they can find this post and figure out if the situation is similar or where to go from there, if it's not. Information and awareness ya know...

Since friday my bunny won’t eat normally. On Friday she didn’t eat neither poop, on Saturday i took her to the vet and the vet gave me critical care to force feed her. She started to drink water on her own that night. Today I started giving her simeticone for gassy bowls and she started eating...

Hi, First time dealing with GI stasis.. My girl Phrosty would not eat her breakfast pellets yesterday, and had no interest in lettuce or carrots. I took her to vet and they gave her Metoclopramide, Metacam, and Critical care. They sent me home with all three to administer over the next...

Six days ago I noticed my one-year-old mini lop wasn’t eating or pooping and was sitting hunched over, which is unusual because he loves to sprawl out. After about ten hours of this I syringe fed him Critical Care and took him to the emergency exotic vet, who said it was likely an early case of...

Hello :) About 6 months ago I unfortunately had terrible experience with GI Stasis, at the time I was a very new rabbit owner and wasn't aware of the risks and my vet at the time was pretty useless when it came to diagnosing so I very sadly lost my little girl! Since this I have been very...
